Some BSPs have very few (3-5) and some have rather much attendants (> 20). It all depends on who likes to come :-) > Details of the event: > > Date: Saturday August 2nd (might be possible to change if necessary) That date is rather unfortunate as Debcamp starts on Sunday so I guess many people will be preparing travel or will be traveling already... > Time: TBD > Location: 22nd Street and Benjamin Franklin Parkway > Philadelphia, PA, 19130 > Transportation: SEPTA train service to Suburban station > from Suburban, 15 min. walk or free private bus loop > Private parking, no charge but very limited space > Car pick-up might be possible > Wheelchair-accessible > Food and drink provided (but contributions welcome!), alcohol optional > No smoking inside > Some overnight accommodation may be possible You might want to start a wiki page linked from http://wiki.debian.org/BSPMarathonLenny and we could mention your BSP in the next 'Bits of the Release Team' if we get a bit more of advance warning :-) Note that it's also important to make sure people who cannot attend can still participate in the (online) BSP, normally we use #debian-bugs on OFTC as a channel to coordinate bug squashing during BSPs... Don't hesitate to ask for more clarifications or help. Cheers Luk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
